My thoughts on your posting
Missed this post, I think I'll work on it a tad.
Ruff N' Tumble (Amiga) - I never had an Amiga, it was more of a British thing, but I picked up a good emulator for it. It's kind of hard to describe this game, maybe sort of like Contra crossed with Mario? It's also a really damn tough game, but it never really feels unfair. A fan is working on a remake, hopefully it'll be done soon so you kiddies can try it for yourselves.
The Punisher (Arcade) - This is a beat-em-up that plays like most of Capcom's other games in that style, but it's one of my favorites. There's a good bit of moves, tons of weapons to use, including quite a few guns, and it doesn't wear on you by the end like a lot of beat-em-ups do.
God Hand (PS2) - A lot of people might have heard of this game, but if you haven't... I don't know how well I could describe it without you actually seeing it in motion. Basically, you're a man with the arm of a god, and you will use this arm to beat 7 kinds of excrement out of enemies in a variety of ways. It's a a tough game, so you'll just as likely be the beatee. Text can't do this game justice, so:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vC2MvIC4j6E
Noitu Love 2 (PC) - This game is just about literally perfect. Aside from the fact it ends too fast, and there's no way to enjoy its awesome boss fights whenever you want, I can think of not think of any flaw for this game. It's got great spritework, gameplay that's up there with Treasure's best, and like I said, AWESOME boss fights. It's $10, but it's seriously worth your money.
Timesplitters: Future Perfect (360/PS3/XBOX) **** your Halo, THIS is THE console FPS. A funny plot, a lot of weapon variety with weapons from different time periods (the flare gun is especially awesome), the ability to make your own maps for multiplayer AND singleplayer, and a lot of fun minigames.
